12 Historic European Spas and Bathhouses for a Wellness Getaway | Condé Nast Traveler
"You’d be hard pressed to pass through Mariánské Lázně, recognized in 2021 as one of 11 Great Spa Towns in Europe by UNESCO World Heritage Site , and not be tempted to experience its lauded spa culture. Mineral springs—the town has 100—form the backbone of Nové Lázně , where elite members of society have been going since the early 19th century. The Roman bath area of the hotel spa includes a steam room, sauna, cold plunge pool for an endorphin rush, foot rock pools to comfort weary feet, a whirlpool, and large pools for leisurely swimming and floating. Book a mud wrap or massage and succumb to the spa’s magical aura." - Stacey Lastoe
